The Hero Super Splendor XTEC 2.0 is a 125cc commuter motorcycle designed for everyday riding, with a 124.7cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine paired with a 5-speed gearbox. The range is offered in two variants, Drum and Disc. Both get LED headlamps, a digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity, call and SMS alerts, a USB charging port and hazard lights. The main differences are in the front braking hardware, with the Drum using a drum brake and the Disc getting a front disc brake.
The Hero Super Splendor XTEC 2.0 produces 10.7hp at 7,500rpm and 10.6Nm at 6,000rpm. Hero claims fuel efficiency of 72kpl, while the current Autocar India specification listing gives an ARAI mileage figure of 75kpl. The motorcycle also gets an i3S idle stop-start system, a 12-litre fuel tank and a 788mm seat height. Both variants use the same engine and gearbox, so the main reason to choose one over the other is the front brake setup rather than performance.
Who should buy the Hero Super Splendor XTEC 2.0?
The Hero Super Splendor XTEC 2.0's specifications and equipment make it worth considering for a few types of commuter-bike buyers.
Buyer type
Why it fits
City Commute
The Hero Super Splendor XTEC 2.0 has a 788mm seat height and a 5-speed gearbox. Its i3S idle stop-start system can switch off the engine during suitable stops, which is useful in stop-start traffic.
Mileage Buyer
Hero claims 72kpl for the Super Splendor XTEC 2.0, while the current Autocar India specification listing gives an ARAI figure of 75kpl. Actual mileage will depend on traffic, riding style, load and maintenance.
First-Time Buyer
The 124.7cc engine produces 10.7hp and 10.6Nm, while the conventional 5-speed gearbox gives riders familiar manual control. Buyers should consider their comfort with clutch and gear operation before choosing it as a first motorcycle.
Value-for-Money Buyer
The Drum variant costs less than the Disc variant, while both share the same engine, gearbox and core equipment. The Drum is worth considering for buyers who want to keep the purchase price down; the Disc adds a front disc brake.
Tech Buyer
The digital instrument cluster includes Bluetooth connectivity, call and SMS alerts, and a USB charging port. Hazard lights and an LED headlamp add to the equipment list, although buyers seeking more advanced riding electronics should compare other motorcycles.
The Hero Super Splendor XTEC 2.0 is less suited to riders looking for sporty performance or advanced safety electronics such as ABS. Its main focus is everyday commuting, fuel efficiency and convenience features, with the Disc variant offering a front disc brake for buyers who prefer that setup.
